The Boss Stays Put

The "Not Applicable" category in last week's e-poll garnered a lot of responses. Almost 67 percent of respondents actually are the boss and therefore would not fire themselves. If firing family were an option, close to 12 percent would hand out a pink slip. Only a little under 17 percent flatly said "no," while surprisingly, close to 5 percent would fire the boss "in a heartbeat."
